After talking with the original creator of the Census UI mod and after he encouraged me to do so, I began working on modified version of the Census UI mod. I call it CensusPlus and it adds functionality and features above and beyond what the original Census UI Mod provides.

<p>CensusPlus came about due to requested changes and desired options
not present in the original Census UI Mod by Ian Pieragostini.

<p>I spoke with Ian (the creator of the original Census UI mod) and he has lost interest in World of Warcraft modding
and encouraged me to modify the Census Mod to my liking. Thus I
have done so.

<p>CensusPlus offers many features above and beyond what the original Census
UI mod provided. Here follows a list of added features:

<ul>
<li>Abilty to minimize the main census window
which provides you the abilty to actually play while a census
is being taken</li>
<li>Ability for the Friends panel to be automatically closed after
each /who is sent to the server. This keeps the UI free of
the main Census window and the /who window</li>
<li>Ability to pause and unpause the current census</li>
<li>Ability to stop the current census in progress</li>
<li>Added a /censusdate command which allows the user to place a
date timestamp on all characters that are found during census's
taken that day -- This helps facilitate greater accuracy in
results when census data is uploaded to <a href="http://www.warcraftrealms.com">http://www.warcraftrealms.com</a></li>
<li>GameTime timestamp added when characters are viewed which will be
used by <a href="http://www.warcraftrealms.com">http://www.warcraftrealms.com</a> if your data is uploaded</li>
</ul>

I am very thankful that Ian gave me his blessing in releasing my own version of the mod and also very thankful to Ian for providing such a wonderful mod to begin with.

CensusPlus keeps it's own tracked information. This was done in order to not impact the original Census users and their data. Unfortunately this means that the data is not compatible and all new collection data will have to be processed.

I may have a work around for this though. Stay tuned and I might have a way to get around this problem._________________phpbb:phpinfo()

I have 2400 horde logged on dunemaul with the old census tool -- is the new Census+ compatible, or will i start the collection process all over?

Well, I'm proud to say that the newest version has a method to import your original Census information. Just grab the latest version and type /censusimport to import your original Census data into the CensusPlus mod._________________phpbb:phpinfo()

There is no API provided that returns the date. There is only the ability to get the time. So the only way to get the date into the census data is to have it entered by the user._________________phpbb:phpinfo()
